Warrior General Games

I just made a HB, and I'm going to slow build. Right now he has 17 strength. Since the best I can do right now for training would be strength and carrying on intense, would it be worth it to just train normal, with some shopping tokens to see what I can get out of that?

Or should I go with the intense strength and carrying.

Thanks!

I always do intense. I have no AE gear for any of my players. Im old school though so thats just my preference.

I am a numbers person but I have not run any math on this opinion, but I believe if I did it would back my theory up. As long as training return over 36%ish normal training is ok, and the bonus token doesn't return enough value, but after that % drops below 30%, the tokens give more of a benefit.
I would say if you do normal training do it early, and save 6-7 shopping tokens, then nothing but Intense on your Key attributes.

Train strength 1 point to 18. (18 + your initial 15 + 15.99 from 3 level-ups will cap it at 48.99)

Then intense train speed + agility until you can cap one of them.

If you plan on wearing AEQ then always train on intense. It's the better option to train multiple skills at low levels because of the extra 25% you get on each skill.

I only use normal to get a shopping token or to quickly train up 1 skill. It doesn't make sense to use otherwise, IMO.

I disagree with this. The higher the training return, the better it is to train on intense because you get more with the extra 25%.

e.g.

36% normal training gives you 45% intense training.
30% normal training gives you 37.5% intense training.
15% normal training gives you 18.75% intense.
10% normal training gives you 12.5% intense.

Not much benefit to intense training for higher skill levels.
